receiver nelson agholor with 0th overall pick and formally introduced this afternoon. he is being seen as replacement for jeremy maclin who went to kc in the off season. he caught over 100 balls and four touchdowns last season of college football. first birds had two more picks to make today moved up five spots second round from 52 to 47 and frayeded both fifth round picks to miami and got back sixth rounder and they filled yet another need. >> philadelphia eagles select eric rowe defensive back utah. >> john runyan making call there. rowe is defensive back played safety and quarterback he's a pac 12 guy playing at utah. he is battle tested. >> we'll figure out where he hits he may start off corner for us and we have a lot of time here. it's -- it was get what we thought was best secondary guy out there for what we did. he was the guy we targeted. the draft ended last night and that was the guy we wanted. >> i feel like the culture was different. they're doing things in ways i thought was positive. not saying other one was bad but i thought they did theirs a different way and kind of took me by interest and i was like many want to join this type of culture of a team. >> all right. so when the third round you would have thought they would have gone to to offensive line inside linebacker jordan hicks out of texas they picked consider aid smart player and knock on him he only has average insinkts to the ball. many thought he would have gone fourth or fifth rountd. suddenly the eagles have a lot of line backers chip explains the pick. >> he has great skill set three timeline backer and can cover. he's outside special teams player and we can bring him in and he can learn from our players and there's great value in the pick. it's one of those looking at the board there was no one else around him that we had at that point in time. >> back now to the first round pick made yesterday nelson agholor got first taste of philadelphia media today and first taste of jamie apody. jamie joins us live from novacare one-on-one with eagles newest wide receiver jamie. >> that poor kid you know they say you never got a second chance of making first impress and nelson agholor hit it out of the park. strong presence. well spoken. if he is as talented on the field as poised off it this should be a match made heaven. >> you can tell us what the last 24 hours has been like for you. >> amazing opportunity very policed to be here and kind of being around any new family has been good. >> wide receiver position for the team no more desean jackson jeremy maclin. what can you bring to the table. >> i want to be a player to help the team out whether offense or special teams you know. coaches will try their best to develop me as a player and i know one thing i'll definitely embrace the way they do it. >> nelson agholor. >> to hear the eagles call your name at 20, had to have been a dream come true. >> maybe for myself and family. because my mom and dad definitely bring on it and every day a train forty was blessed that day with an opportunity and now it's time for me to continue to work for what i was given. >> eagles fans what do you love against nelson agholor. >> i control the controllable in terms of preparation and hard work and passion and love for what i do. one thing i tell you to have a consistent guy in terms of working hard and preparing. there won't be a game i go out there and don't know what to do. >> agholor actually learned game of football to help assimilate with neighborhood kids. he moved here to united states when he was five from nigeria when mother won lottery and visa to come to this country he'll wear jersey number 17 he veemd like quite the talented kid. >> up next we'll hear from espn sal palantonio and more on marcus mariota the one that got away talked about what he learned at oregon with chip kelly and the trade that could have been. >> become with our special draft breakdown. we're learn if the additions are indeed the right pieces. many eagles fans felt the guy was there for the right taking but the price too high. we're talking about marcus mariota. titans brought him in today for interests duck torrey news conference he may have not been reunited with chip kelly he has a lot of chip still in him. they're willing to trade to get him. chip continues to dispute that and understands how reports like these spread like wildfire. it's what makes sports great you have nothing to talk about sports radio let's talk trades and everybody comes one trades that's great that's what sports are about i think it's fun but ft. guy talked about in trade gets a little nervous my point i have to tell him not to listen to that stuff. but i mean everybody can trade. trade me. i don't care. >> obviously goal of off season and draft is to improve the roster that's easier said than done sometimes. so eagles really improved? jamie apody and espn insider sal palantonio discuss. >> eagle $not get guy. they didn't get marcus mariott a how do you see the quarterback situation shipping up next year. >> it's a question mark and i think sam bradford has to get on the field and stay on the field. right now he has not been cleared for all football activities jamie. this is say work in progress. mark sanchez in meantime takes first team represents i think on offense for a few weeks. probably well into june and maybe beginning of training camp. you will see a lot of mark sanchez and sam bradford trying to catch up you. >> don't see them drafting a quarterback. >> i don't see them using second third, fourth round pick on quarterback unless they love them and i don't think they're in love with any after marcus mariota. >> are they better or worse than last year. >> on paperwork in progress. they won ten games two years in a row and if you look at schedule it's a winnable schedule. it's not really that difficult. but they have a lot of different parts beginning at the quarterback position. offensive line in state of flux. bringing in demarco murray and ask george an matthews second year player to win one-on-one match-ups. moving jordan matthews to the outside will be interesting experiment. >> how much pressure is on chip kelly now that he has complete control. >> i don't think there's too much pressure on him he has year as much control as you think you might have over the situation in the end, it's talent that wins. >> when we return, we will switch gears and talk phillies. chase utley is happy month of april is gone. gone like that baseball. good

problem. believe it or not worst hitner baseball. buck 13 average for bat here in the fourth as a three-run shot, 3-0 phils and marlins tie it up bottom nine tied at 3 and here comes john carlos
